Abstract: Tourism is a rapidly growing and developing industry in Zanzibar giving the country 80% of its foreign exchange earnings. Yet, it is a sector that is not very well understood amongst Zanzibari people.

why dont you put important topics , like the union of tz and znz so we can come and discuss it openly , and another important topic ' was mwl nyerere a father of the nation or dictator?'
ReplyDeleteSiasa basi tena kijana! Masikio yetu yanataka kusikia vitu vitakavyotusaidia kuishi vizuri. Muungano sio suala la maana kwangu mimi mkulima. Muungano umejadiliwa sana hakuna kipya na wala kuwepo au kutokuwepo hakutakusaidia kitu wewe!
ReplyDeletehahaaaa , unaonekana anonymus 2 umeguswa na maoni ya huyo wa mwanzo hapo , nafikiri ana point , hizo topic ni muhimu sana sana kama mtayarishaji ataweza kuziandaa ili na sisi tuje tujadili kwa sisi wazanzibari , hata mimi nafikiria muungano ndio chimbo la kudidimia kwa nchi yetu ya zanzibar , hii haina mushkeli ,kuzungumza masuala ya utalii si muhimu kwa sababu kila mtu anajua kwa sasa utalii ni sehemu muhimu kwa uchumi wa visiwa vyetu na unakubalika na wengi , kwa hio ni kupotezeana muda tu kuzungmzia mambo yanayokubalika, vitu vilivyokuwa havikubaliki ndio vipatiwe muda tuvijadili , na hasa MUUNGANO ni GONJWA KUBWA HILIIIII
ReplyDeleteWell I would arguing with you my dear brother/sisters. I think we should be carefull not puting political matters in a development project plan.
ReplyDelete1. I agree with a anonymous2 that we should not talk about politics everytime. Tourisim its one of the important Topic to dscuss through conference meetings like that one. I would like to participate Via SKYP...
2. We have to understand that, there are some few peoples & SMZ leader own many Italian Hotel or sharehold in Zanzibar... But we dont see any benefit of tourisim industry, instead we saw SMZ leader or their wife giving money to a particular group of Maskani or community NGOs on behalf of CCM..
.The truth is this money they should return to the government through Tax in order to provide basic services to the community.
OOOOPS naomba samahani nimeingiza Siasa kidogo.
3. In Unguja there are many hotel yet to be discover that its ruing our environment in a daily life. The peoples own the hotel employing foregner instead of local Zanzibari.
SMZ have an eye in Pemba right now, they have a plan to cell Vuma Wimbi, Mazrui Ruing (which is very important for Pemba natural history). Wambaa and so on... We have to remember what happened to Unguja Beecheas it will repiate in Pemba... So we nee to meet with this people to talk about it.
We
@ anonymus may 17,10.04 , its pathetic if you dont know politics and development projects are inseparable, the islands will never develop under union and will always be oppressed under the union , the main objective of union is to make sure these islands and their people majority of whom are muslims do not progress , i agress this topic needs to be discussed in your monthly lecture if you believe in justice. ' speak the truth be it painful to you or others'
